Ingredients
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 piece Egg yolk
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 piece Lemon
- 150 milliliters Extra virgin olive oil
- 150 milliliters Sunflower oil or regular olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the garlic cloves and finely grate them into a paste using a microplane or crush them with the flat side of a knife and a pinch of salt to form a smooth garlic paste.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, Dijon mustard, and the grated garlic paste until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3
Squeeze the lemon and set aside 1 tablespoon of fresh juice. Add this to the garlic-egg mixture, whisking until it is thoroughly incorporated.
Step 4
In a measuring cup, combine the extra virgin olive oil and sunflower oil. Slowly drizzle the oils into the garlic-egg mixture, a few drops at a time, whisking constantly to emulsify the mixture. Take care to go slowly at first to ensure the aioli doesn’t split.
Step 5
As the mixture begins to thicken, you can gradually add the oils in a thin, steady stream, continuing to whisk vigorously until all the oil is incorporated and the aioli is creamy and smooth.
Step 6
Season the aioli with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If needed, add a touch more lemon juice to balance the flavors.
Step 7
Transfer the aioli to a serving dish or airtight container and chill in the refrigerator until ready to use. Enjoy as a dip, spread, or sauce with your favorite dishes.
